Manufacturer’s Recommendations<br />
Storage<br />
- products should be stored in their original packages, on pallets or shelves;<br />
- packages with products inside are to be properly spaced providing suitable air flow, protecting against<br />
improper humidity and/or temperature;<br />
- unwrapped products should be stored in a manner not permitting their deformation, e.g. rolls in vertical<br />
position, abrasive mops in horizontal or hanging position.<br />
Storage Climate Conditions<br />
- temperature range 18° ÷ 22ºC,<br />
- relative humidity 45 ÷ 65 %.<br />
High humidity causes flabbiness and/or unevenness of the backing and premature breaking off of the<br />
abrasive material.<br />
Low humidity and too high or low temperature deteriorate flexibility of the backing, making it crumbly and<br />
brittle.<br />
Adjustment To Storage Climate Conditions<br />
Endless abrasive belts, prior to their use, should get adjusted to the conditions in which they are to be used.<br />
Endless belts are recommended to be left for 24 hours hanging on special racks at the work stand.<br />
IMPROPER STORAGE OF COATED ABRASIVES DETERIORATES THEIR PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY,<br />
AND CAN DAMAGE OR EVEN DESTROY THE PRODUCT<br />
Operating Conditions<br />
Proper selection of grinding machines and/or abrasives is an essential condition of effective working of<br />
workpieces.<br />
An efficiently operating dust extraction system, shape and hardness of the clamping piece and its surface<br />
condition, that all substantially affect a sanding/grinding process to be correct and effective.<br />
In order to improve the quality of processed surface, machines should be maintained in good technical<br />
condition.<br />
Be sure the endless belts (F 1, F 2 & F 5 types of joints) run in the direction as indicated by the arrow.<br />
Our Company warrants high quality and efficiency of the products offered, provided the foregoing<br />
recommendations are observed.<br />
Safe Work with <strong>UNION</strong> <strong>Abrasives</strong><br />
Strict observing of the work-safety rules and/or regulations is in your best interest, to work safely and efficiently.<br />
